Is motorcycling allowed?

Quite a few of them overseas. Must me a mental ride. My standard Rocket still blows me away. I can only imagine what a supercharged one must be like.

Yeah, that Rocket 3 must be awesome. I would love to see how it goes against my 1098 on a little traffic light pull away……..not race hey, cannot say that loud anymore! 
I am in the hunt for a Busa…..this is a medium term project, perhaps a year or two, but a 2018 Gen 2 or a 3 year old Gen 3. I prefer the look and colour availability of the Gen 2.

Would be interesting to see the result against the 1098. The Rocket droos my son's crossplane R1 on a robot pull away. The admin of a Facebook Rocket owners group is a American woman. She has 2 drag bikes. A Rocket and a turbo Busa.

On the way to the airport this morning, I met up with a lovely looking Supersport.

Bike sounds phenomenal.

At a "quick pull away from the traffic lights" the bike is rather quick.... But do too is my Harley😁.... Do light to do light I was rather impressed with what the little 96ci engine could deliver compared to the Supersport.

Going to be away till Friday, do figured I would try the open shaded area parking..... Seriously second guessing my decision already 😐

The Rocket must be amazing, I would like to try one out at some point. Shear torque monster!

This is a very pretty bike.

If you ever get the chance to "test drive" one, take it.

There was a thread about it recently on Wilddogs where some guy found free bike parking at the airport. I'll see if I can find it.

This contribution from July:

 

I parked there last week - there are demarcated bays next to the pickup zone pedestrian walkway. Enter at the P2 pickup zone boom, and exit underneath the ramp coming from level 2.
I asked security, they are super helpful.

But seriously even if you see one in a bike shop. Take the opportunity to test ride it even if you have no intention of buying it.

Mind you I did that with my Triumph Tiger and bought it 😂

That's the risk you run, trying something with no intention to buy it but then fall in love with it.
Worse yet if you don't have the means to buy it and have to live knowing you will never have it..........

Ok, it was a mistake parking in the Shade Parking .... bike looked like it had been dragged through a muddy trail ride after the rain and wind got hold of it.

Was properly disgusted in how the bike looked, and trying to save the office a bit of money is just not worth the time I need to go and spend to get her back to how she looked before.

Eish Hairy; very brave to leave it open - maybe a bike cover like Itchy Boots etc have?
